Arthur Masuaku in for Reece Oxford

New left-back signing Arthur Masuaku only joined the Hammers this week but given the long-term injury to Aaron Cresswell, the pacy and attacking Frenchman will more than likely come straight into the side to shore up the left.

Reece Oxford played very well against Domzale and is a future Hammers captain, but Chelsea is a huge step up and Bilic will go with experience at the back.

Angelo OgbonnaAngelo Ogbonna in for Sam Byram

Ogbonna will resume his partnership with Winston Reid at the heart of West Ham's defence off the back of being involved in Italy's Euro 2016 adventure under new Blues boss Conte.

Although Ogbonna and James Collins were West Ham's best pairing statistically last season, Reid is the club's main man at the back and that is set to be the pairing which starts the season.

Sam Byram has been filling in there in recent weeks but will drop to the bench as back-up for Michail Antonio.

Andre Ayew in for Enner Valencia

The new record £20.5 million signing from Swansea City should come straight into the side in place of the ineffective and frustrating Valencia who has been linked with a move away from East London.

Ayew brings the direct threat, pace and goals that West Ham have been missing and got two goals on his debut against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on the opening day of last season.

How will Hammers line-up against Chelsea

That will leave the Hammers lining up something like this come Monday night with the likes of Dimitri Payet on the bench to come on for the last half an hour after Bilic admitted his star man won't be fit enough to play the full 90 minutes.
